They’ve faced the loss of loved ones and the challenges that brings. They’ve never given up on themselves or their educational goals. They will keep moving toward those goals with help from the State of Oregon. Three Oregon high school graduates are recipients of the 2017 Workers’ Memorial Scholarship awards, the Oregon Occupational Safety and Health Division (Oregon OSHA) has announced. The awards program helps family members of Oregon workers who have been fatally injured or permanently disabled to finance higher education. Each of the recipients has different dreams and career aspirations. Each of them calls a different part of Oregon home. All of them have experienced the personal and financial shock waves that result when a parent is lost to a workplace death or permanently disabled while on the job. The recipients are: Dalton Lehnherr, Powers. Lehnherr graduated in 2017 from Powers High School. He plans to study web design and visual communications at Linn-Benton Community College. His father was seriously injured in a logging truck accident. Lehnherr is receiving a $1,000 award. “It means a lot to me,” he said of the award. He’ll always follow his dad’s advice, he said, which is to keep trying, keep your head up, and to be as positive as you can.
